Query and Update CA 1 ISPF Session Options

CA 1 ISPF optionally updates your ISPF log file for all activities performed. You can print the log file or use the browse function on the ISPF/PDF Primary Option Menu to display the file.

To view or change the default option for the log file, go to the CA 1 ISPF Primary Option Menu and type 0 (for CA 1 ISPF OPTS) and press ENTER. The CA 1 ISPF Session Options Panel is displayed.

The CA 1 ISPF Session Options Panel gives you an opportunity to do the following:

• View or change the default option (Y) for the log file.
• Specify your preferred date format that is in effect for all of your CA 1 ISPF sessions. The date format can be specified as a unique date pattern (for acceptable values, see the Utilities and Reports Reference Guide ) or as DEFAULT. If DEFAULT is specified, the DATEFMT parameter in the TMOOPTxx member of hlq.CTAPOPTN is used.

In the example below, the preferred date format is MMMDD YYYY.
